Can you designate which statistics to output into a new dataset using PROC FREQ? 

proc freq data=go_long ;
    tables exam*htn / nocol nopercent out=htn_plot;
run;

The above syntax produces the correct table, which has counts and row percentages for each value of exam:

But the output dataset does not contain the row percentages, which is what I want (it looks like it contains total percent).

proc print data=htn_plot; where htn=1; run;

Is there a way I can specify which stats (i.e., counts and row percentages) to output using PROC FREQ?

 

Thanks.

Add the OUTPCT option. 


See the list of options in Table 9 in the documentation:
